Head of Culture: A Dream Career

Thinking outside the Box

Adecco Denver

Office Coordinator (Temp)

January 2016 — July 2016

My temporary assignment in Denver recently ended and I am ready to start a full-time career with a great company. As an office coordinator I was responsible for the database and calendar management of 30 recruiters and their daily candidates. On average I would walk 20+ candidates (Job seekers) through the new hire and on-boarding process daily. I would also mentor all new internal hires, making sure they had the resources they needed. I was administrative support to all staff; regularly providing assistance for the executives as well. I performed the daily audit to avoid any conflicts with state, local, and internal compliance. I was also first point of contact for candidates and vendors, and regularly performed reference checks.
